Connect Through Scripture -about20 Min.
This year at the Big House we are learning how to love and follow Jesus. One way we can do that is by reading God’s word everyday. Be sure to follow Christ United Kids on FB, Instagram, and Youtube for a daily bible reading.
This week we are learning how to love others. Our memory verse for this week is John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have have loved you, so you must love one another." John 13:35 says "By this everyone will know you are my disciples, if you love one another."
Someone pray after reading the scripture and before the discussion asking God to guide the discussion.
- How do people know that we are a disciple of Jesus?
- How can I show that I love my family? My friends? My neighbors?
- Is there someone that our family needs to show love to this week?
Caring for Unconnected Friends– about 5 Min.
- Let everyone name their unconnected friends and then one person can pray for them all.
